Don’t miss out on a unique training opportunity for scientists, provided by EFG’s Interim Director of Stakeholder Engagement, Maureen Gallagher.
On 17 November, 14:00-17-00 CET, we are organising a Masterclass entitled “Lessons and tools to Increase Your Public Affairs Impact”. Participation is possible either onsite in Brussels or online.
The three-hour training will provide scientists with the skills and knowledge you need to be more impactful as individuals and prepare you to assist your organisation in communicating science to non-scientists who are making decisions that impact your sector.
What you will learn:
- How to speak with confidence and authority
- How to organise and prepare your key messages
- The importance of WIFM
- How not to violate the rule of 3s in communicating
- Tools for building a long-term Public Affairs Strategy
